The Dallas daily herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1873-1887, 1887-03-29

The HERALD has all tho time pre-
dicied that the Interstate commerce
law would prove TO be of moro sub
stantal benefit Is the railroads than to
the public, and we shall watch ior the
announcement of increased rates on
long hauls without corresponding
reduction in short haus. The HER
AIDS principal ground for this belief
was in the almost unanimous vote for
the measure in the house Most of
the anti-rairoad men voted against
their judgmen! 10 salty popular
clamCr tor "railroad regulation"
while those favorable TO railroad
liberty" knew what they were about.
Jay Gould and every railroad mag
nalc is satisfied with the bin and the
majority of the comm ssion.
One point nigh be mentioned here
to snow that the railroads should be
considered fortunate. For several
v ars the roads have had to maintain
about fiity-siX pool co emissions, en-
D owing the time Of thousands OF mer,
at IN expense Of millions of dollars.
These pools will now be dissolved; but
the object for which they were sus-
tanned uniform rates wi be guar
anteed by the interstate law at public
expense. with this additional a vm-
tage to the roads: discrimination in
favor of long hanls will be done away
with, and as short haul rates cannot be
reduced to long haul rates in justice
to the roads, long hauls must come TO
short haul rates.
The HERALD only hopes that the
law will be as agreeable to the inter-
ests of the masses, as IL is quite sure it
will be to the interests of the rail Dad
corporations.

The Libel Law.

AUSTIN, March 29. A joint meet
ing OF the senate and house judiciary
committees was held this afternoon to
consider the libel bill recently intro
duced in both houses. Mcssrs. w. p.
Gaines, of the Austin Statesman, and
II. G. Lowe, of the Galveston and
Dallas News, were present, and adj
dressed the committee in support OF
the bill, showing the injustice of the
present law, and how it Is taken advan-
tage of Tor the purpose OF blackmail.
The House committee decided toreport
the bill favorably, with an amendment
providing that retraction shall bar
ali claim except for actual damages,
unless the publication was malicious,
in which case exemplary damages may
be recovered, Notwithstanding the re-
traction. The Senate committee. by a
close vote, adopted an adverse report.
A favorable minoaity report will, how
ever, be presented in the Senate. The
bill will be printed and an effort made
to get it acted upon before the ses-
sion closes. tOpinion is more favora-
bic to the measure than it was, but the
near approach of the close of the scs.
sion may prevent the accomplishment
of much.

Starving Shipwi eek Passengers
Fight for Brcnd-A Sc""e that
Beggars Description.

New YORK, March 29.-Five hun
dred and nineteen Italian passenger
of the wrecked steamer Scotia arrived
on the barge lIaggarty at Castle Gar,
den late yesterday. The scene that
followed beggars description. They
rushed pcll-mell into the rotunda
shrieking or food like ravenouswo Olives
They crowded around the lunch tables
climbing over each other trampling
on The helpless women and children
Pandcmonium reigned supreme fol
fully an hour. 1t is customary to
register all immigrants before they
enter the rotunda, but red tape was
broken on this occasion by Superin-
tendent jackson. The force of the
mass Of the people was so great that
the officers who were stationed to
keep order were swept aside like
straws. The scething mass could not
be restrained, and Superintendent
Jackson gave orders to give them all
the food needed. Then distribution
began, but it was impossible to rcgu-
late it. Strong men crowded to the
front with upliftcd arms, their eyes
starting from their sockets, cry
ing in Italian, "Brcai! Bread!'
The surging mob was utterly uncon-
trollablc. The officers aided the dis
tribut Oh by throwing loavcs over the
heads of the nearest to the outside of
the crowd. Every time loaf was
thrown into the crowd twenty or more
scrambled, and in some cases fought
to get it. Dry bread was luxury. In
a short time all the food was gone.
The women aud children were cared
for, and milk and beer was added to
their portion. The complaints of the
unfortunate immigrants were most un-
favorable to the company. and particu-
larly TO the captain of the Scotia.
Seventy additional passengers came
by rail from PAT choque.

THE Paris News thinks that women
should be satisfied with their indirect
but very certain influence in the con-
troll of the government. 1t says:
Women can't vote, but they are only
the sweeter and lov6lier for that.
While they DO not run the govern
mcnt, rs Mr.. Fuller would say, per Sc,
they boss the men who have the job OF
running it.
Women could exert powerful in
fluence in our elections to-day without
leaving their homes, if they would on'y
do il. In this prohibition contest,
especially, the women arc more inter-
ested than the men, because, as Mrs.
Chaplin says, the men take the liquor
and the women and children take the
consequences. So every woman should
see to it, from the home and from the
parlor, that husband. brother and
sweetheart votes right on this ques-
ton. Wiz they do il!

This afternoon one Albrccht, drag

the other occupants of the house were
startled by several shots, followed by
groans. When officers arrived on the
scene few minutes later. they found
Flanagan lying dead on the floor, shot
through his head, and Nathan lying
near by shot through the breast.
Ills left eye was shot out, and sew

The Fort Worth Evening Mail has
this to say of the success of prohibit
ton in State where the law is backed
by healthy public sentiment:
The prohibitionists of Maine seem
determined to guard against evasion
of the prohibition law in that state.
The new law is rs stringent and far
reaching as ingenuity and expe hence
car devise. Druggists are permitted
to handle ,iriis only when compound
ed with me drug, and any druggist
who secures a United States internal
revenue license to vend spirltuous or
malt liquors shall he deemed giil'y Of
selling in the meaning of The act, and
not only fined for the oflense but i'm
prisoned. IL also imposes heavy pen
atty upon railroads for unloading
spirits, except at designated stations
where they are inspecl ed before the
owner can claim his property. # this
law does not prohibit, then The task OF
trying TO keep man from drinking
whisky might as well be given up.
